Transvaginal mesh, also known as TV mesh or pelvic mesh, are medical products typically used to treat pelvic organ prolapse (POP) or stress urinary incontinence (SUI). Literally tens of thousands of patients who were implanted with the product from different manufacturers suffered complications such as bleeding, pain, inability to have sex, and infection among others. Further, reports of the product "eroding" into other organs often requires a revision surgery as a remedy.
The Sanchez case involved the use of both a Pinnacle Pelvic Floor Repair Kit (used to treat pelvic organ prolapse (POP)) and the Advantage Transvaginal Mid-Urethral Sling System (to treat Stress Urinary Incontinence (SUI)). Sanchez claimed both products were defective in that neither were adequately tested and she was not adequately warned of the risks of use.
The defective product case began one week ago and represented the sixth trial facing the manufacturer of pelvic mesh implants. The Marlborough, Massachusetts-based company faces more than 25,000 mesh claims in total in U.S. federal and state courts. In September 2014, Martha Salazar was awarded $73 million against Boston Scientific which included $50 million in punitive damages.
"It is good to see these cases are finally getting resolved and the victims are receiving compensation, although it is unlikely any amount of money can adequately compensate these individuals," said Paul Coppola, President of Fair Rate Funding, a company which specializes in advancing cash to plaintiffs prior to settlement. "There is no doubt these are positive signs that the thousands of victims affected by defective pelvic mesh will ultimately be vindicated."
"We realize that many plaintiffs need financial help immediately. Our aim is to afford financial resources to deserving parties so they can wait out the legal process," Coppola continued. "The wait has been a long one, and for tens of thousands of injured women unfortunately, the wait continues."
